Offshore Engineering for Regulated Industries
Every regulated business weighing offshore engineering asks the same two questions: will the engineers be good enough, and where do our code and data live? Both deserve specific answers before anyone signs anything.
The Hiring System
Recruiting engineers is its own discipline, and Adaca runs it directly. Our recruitment team assesses every candidate, and our engineering team then cross-checks and reviews them, on the ground in the Philippines and locally in Australia where that is required. The bar is senior; the average engineer stays 4.5 years.
Clients commit to Adaca and its workflows first; candidate selection follows. You are buying the system that produces and keeps good engineers, not gambling on one CV. When an engineer does not work out, we replace them.
The Delivery Record
Adaca has delivered inside regulated environments since 2015. During the Banking Royal Commission, ANZ ran investigator responses on a CRO dashboard we built, with zero reporting incidents. Qantas rolled out our safety-critical collaboration portal across its aircraft maintenance facilities six months after the project began. ClearView's advisor portal serves thousands of financial advisors at 99.9% uptime.
The engagements hold over time. Prospa's Salesforce pod stayed embedded for four years. Morrison Securities runs a hybrid managed team under its CTO's governance today.
The full stories are in our case studies.
Where Code and Data Live
Adaca engineers work on managed devices with ISO 27001 security practices embedded. Adaca is ISO 27001 certified, and meets SOC 2 Type 2 requirements with the audit pending.
Delivery is Australian-led. Collaboration and technical leadership sit in your meetings and your context, from Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland; execution scales through our Manila delivery centre.
Two Ways to Engage
If you need a delivery team with a lead accountable for outcomes, Build a Team covers the managed model. If you need senior engineers embedded in a team you already run, Scale Your Team covers staff augmentation.
Common Questions
Will offshore engineers be good enough for regulated work?
The record says yes: ANZ during the Royal Commission, a safety-critical Qantas portal, ClearView at 99.9% uptime. The mechanism is the hiring system: a senior bar, technical recruiters, engineering cross-checks, and 4.5-year average retention.
Where do our code and data live?
Work happens on managed devices with ISO 27001 security practices embedded. Adaca is ISO 27001 certified, and meets SOC 2 Type 2 requirements with the audit pending.
Is Adaca ISO 27001 certified?
Yes. Adaca is ISO 27001 certified.
What happens if an engineer doesn't work out?
We replace them. Clients commit to Adaca and its workflows rather than to an individual CV, so replacement is part of the model, not an exception to it.
Who manages the engineers day to day?
Delivery is Australian-led: collaboration and technical leadership sit in your meetings and context, while execution scales through the Manila delivery centre. On managed teams a delivery lead is accountable; on staff augmentation your own leads direct the work.
